I think it would be quite simple.  The Control object type has an invoke method of "Disconnect from Typedef".  Calling that on the selected object(s) should do the trick.  I'd recommend looking at how some other quick drop functions have been made found here to get an idea of how to make it.

There is already a JKI Right Click Frame Work VI that does this.

(Disconnect from Typedef Recursive)

Just copy that code into a QD function.

The right click framework was developed by JKI before QuickDrop existed to help speed development in a similar way. It is free and google search should bring it up. But it is no longer being since QuickDrop.

RCF is available via VIPM.  But we found that it doesn't work with newer versions of LabVIEW.  I want to say it was with 2011 that RCF got broken.  And JKI is no longer supporting it.  So I don't recommend going that route.

I took a stab at writing this shortcut. You can get it here:

I also got mine to work.

I use this function:

Untitled.png

It disconnects all typedefs on the front.
